Anchorages Between Selsey and Portland Tony Firth – Port Solent Yacht Club Anchorages between Selsey and Portland Tony Firth – Port Solent Yacht Club This list is far from exhaustive and is only intended to indicate some places that I or friends have found useful or enjoyable (I’ve added some pictures taken by Jacqui Howe and myself to this 2013 version and shall try to add to and improve these as time goes on). Where an anchorage is well known but I haven’t tried it, I have said so. In principle we can anchor anywhere where it isn’t actually prohibited – we aren’t restricted to areas with an anchor symbol on the chart. However, common sense will suggest that anchoring in prohibited areas or channels, among swinging moorings, near charted submarine cables or in locations with strong tidal streams is not a good idea. Under the ColRegs vessels of under 50m LOA are obliged to show a black ball on the forward part of the boat in daylight, and an all-round white light in a similar position at night. I’m assuming a suitable type and weight of anchor and sufficient cable (to anchor with confidence in depths up to 10m requires 40-50 m of cable of which at least 20 m should be chain) and that the cable is laid out properly rather than dropped in a heap. A particular anchorage may be OK in a slight roll for a heavy sailing cruiser but much less acceptable in boats with less ballast and flatter bottoms and especially for fast motor cruisers. Comfort at anchor can often be improved by: · Reducing snubbing by bending a strong nylon warp to the chain with a rolling hitch, paying out a few more metres of chain and warp, making the warp off to a strong fore-deck cleat and easing the chain until the load is taken by the more elastic warp · Bringing the bows to face a side-on chop or swell (Braye Harbour is the classic case of this, though I have also used this locally in Sandown Bay) by means of a longer relieving line taken to a cockpit winch or aft cleat · Encouraging the boat to lie bow to wind by setting a mizzen, or by setting a small sail (a small storm jib or a home-made item) on the backstay, sheeted in to the centre · Giving up and going somewhere more sheltered For most anchorages I have given a latitude-longitude position that lies more or less in the middle. However, these coordinates are only intended to assist finding the right general area on the chart; they should not be taken as “X marks the spot” for anchoring. Decisions on where to drop the hook will always require a combination of chart work, bearings or transits, tidal information and depth sounding, combined with an awareness of any likely changes in wind strength and direction. Chichester Harbour This branching harbour is sheltered and suitable for any type of boat to anchor, but available places are more restricted than you may expect, largely because most of the anchoring space has been filled with swinging moorings and much of the rest turns to mud at LW. · Nearly everybody knows East Head anchorage (50, 27.33 N; 000, 54.60 W), where the channel passes close to the sandy beach of the Head. The beach is steep-to so you can get in quite close. Holding is moderate but shelter from most wind directions is excellent (though not a good place in a fresh breeze between N and E). When it’s crowded, you may find yourself exposed to strong tidal streams if you have to anchor on the edge of the channel. · Nearby and quieter is Pilsey Island anchorage (50, 48.08 N; 000, 54.20 W) at the west side of the lower end of Thorney Channel. Don’t try to land on Pilsey Island in spring or summer – the rare birds that nest there won’t like it. · Another useful spot, within dinghy reach of the pub at Itchenor, is to fetch up clear of the down-harbour end of the moorings on the Itchenor side, below the Northshore yard and its associated moorings (50, 48.50 N; 000, 52.60 W). · There are a number of spots along the margins of the deep water in Emsworth Channel that are perfectly satisfactory. · Ingenious use of a Chichester Harbour chart will allow you to find a few small holes in side-channels where you can lie afloat at LW. I won’t spoil the fun by giving lat and long. Spithead This stretch to the E of Portsmouth entrance has little to offer on the mainland side apart from its abundant shoals which can save an unnecessary Pan-Pan call if the engine fails in a dead calm and the boat is drifting on the tide. The Island side, however, has several good possibilities between Culver Cliff and Ryde: Whitecliff Bay (50, 40.20 N; 001, 05.50 W) is a small anchorage tucked behind the N end of the prominent white nose of Culver Cliff. Holding is only fair but it is well sheltered from anything between S and W. Swell tends to creep round into it, so it can have quite a roll unless the sea is fairly flat. I’ve been in to have a look but haven’t tested it overnight yet. A large rock-fall some years back altered the bottom contours somewhat but if you sound around carefully you will be OK There are several minor anchorages in the approaches to Bembridge Harbour. Inspection of the chart will show possibilities outside the drying area NW of St Helen’s Fort, but bear in mind that the banks shift about and the depth gauge is more important than the charted soundings. Shelter is good from W through S to SE, and holding is pretty good too. It is possible to anchor almost anywhere in sufficient depth in Priory Bay (50, 42.7 N; 001, 05.1 W) and off Seaview (40, 43.5 N; 001, 06.5 W). Small local moorings take some space off Seaview (there are also a few visitors’ moorings), but Priory Bay has few obstructions beyond the odd lobster pot. These are peaceful and attractive places, well sheltered from W to S, and with a grandstand view of the big ships coming and going from Southampton and Portsmouth. The only disadvantage is that the ferries tend to create a bit of wash from time to time. The Eastern Solent The area of Ryde Sands is generally so shallow that any anchorage tenable at LW would be miles offshore at HW. However, there are plenty of opportunities for lunch stops around HW if you feel mildly adventurous. Much the same is true to the west of Wootton Creek as far as Barton Point. However, the best-known (for many, the only) anchorage on the island side between Wootton and Cowes is Osborne Bay (50, 45.4 N; 001, 15.1 W). This gives good shelter in anything with any south in it, and is also reasonable in westerlies. The main problem is the number of other boats at lunchtimes and afternoons, though there is always room for a few more round the edge. However, it is excellent as an overnight stop, with good holding in mud, sand and shells in most places (the few rocky patches are obvious from the chart), relatively weak tidal streams and an excellent view of the big ships rounding Brambles Bank. The shoreline is very attractive, but it all lies within the grounds of Osborne House and no landing is allowed. If approaching at night, cross the line of the port-hand buoys on the south side of the main channel and head for a white light in the back of the bay (well above any masthead lights) until you are in your chosen depth. Queen's Harbour Master only permits pleasure boats to anchor in and around Portsmouth Harbour in an emergency. However, I have seen yachts anchored close inshore to the east of Gilkicker point between the inner swatchway and Fort Monckton. This could be useful for a short stop with sufficient rise of tide, as this doesn't appear to be a no-anchoring area. However, the proximity of the heavily-used swatchway and a high-security military establishment make this an unwise place to spend the night. The best-known possibility on the mainland side is Stokes Bay (50, 46.8 N; 001, 09.7 W), lying to the W of Gilkicker Point. This is very useful in any wind with north in it. The classic sailing-school approach is to follow the transit of the sailing club flagpole with the square tower of Alverstoke church until you are in your required depth. Done carefully, this leads to lots of boats anchoring on top of each other. However, it is all totally unnecessary; anchoring (in sand) is fine anywhere about a cable off the beach. The main thing is to avoid anchoring where you will interfere with dinghy racing. There aren’t any swinging moorings here, so if you pick one up it is probably one of the marker buoys for the day’s course. West of Stokes Bay, the shallow area on the mainland side of the big ship channel is bisected by the North Channel, used by ships of lesser draft to avoid the precautionary area round Brambles Bank and Calshot Spit. The whole area between the North Channel and the low-lying mainland shore offers endless possibilities for open-water anchorage in quiet conditions or wind with some north in it.

  • The First Record of a Mammal from the Insect Limestone Is a Left Lower Incisor of the Rodent Isoptychus (NHMUK.PV.M45566) (Fig.3B)
    Vertebrate remains from the Insect Limestone (latest Eocene), Isle of Wight, UK Hooker, J. J., Department of Earth Sciences, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD, UK (corresponding author) Evans, S. E., Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, University College London, Anatomy Building, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT, UK Davis, P. G., c/o J. J. Hooker Running head: Insect Limestone vertebrates 1 Abstract A small fauna of vertebrates is recorded from the Insect Limestone, Bembridge Marls Member, Bouldnor Formation, late Priabonian, latest Eocene, of the Isle of Wight, UK. The taxa represented are teleost fishes, lizards including a scincoid, unidentified birds and the theridomyid rodent Isoptychus. The scincoid represents the youngest record of the group in the UK. Of particular note is the taphonomic interpretation based on the preservation of anatomical parts of land-based tetrapods that would have been most likely transported to the site of deposition by wind, namely bird feathers and pieces of shed lizard skin. These comprise the majority of the specimens and suggest that the dominant transport mechanism was wind. Keywords: Bembridge Marls – bird – feather – fish – lizard – mammal – rodent – Scincoidea – skin – Squamata – taphonomic – Theridomyidae 2 The Insect Limestone is a discrete bed of fine-grained, hard, muddy, freshwater to hypersaline limestone near the base of the Bembridge Marls Member of the Bouldnor Formation (Munt 2014; Ross & Self 2014). Its age is late Priabonian, thus latest Eocene (Hooker et al. 2009). Insect and plant remains are relatively common, whilst vertebrate remains are exceptionally rare and are limited to fragmentary skeletal elements of fish, lizard, bird and mammal, bird feathers and pieces of shed lizard skin.

On the RELATIONS of the EocEnE and OLIa0CEN~ STRATA in the HA~trSHIR~. BASlI~. By Prof. JoH~ W. JuDD, F.R.S., See. G.S. (Read April 26, 1882.) I. Introduction. SI~cx the publication of my paper "On the Oligocene Strata of the Hampshire Basin" *, I have been favoured with many valuable suggestions and criticisms from geologists, both in this and other countries ; and the time has now perhaps arrived when some of the interesting c!uestions thus raised may be discussed with advantage. The great object of my former memoir was to determine the age and relations of a series of marine beds which contain a highly interesting fauna--a fauna presenting the closest affinities with that of a well-defined system of strata very widely distributed in Central Europe. In framing his classification of the Hampshire Tertiaries, the late Prof. Edward Forbes gave no pIace t~ this important series of beds--a fact which does not seam t~ Iiave bt~ea Strfiiciently considered by those among my critics who h~ve ~mm'rea.r ~ay proposed modifi- cation of Forbes's classification as tmaecessary-ahd, therefore, un- warrantable. The history of the discovery of this i~tevestiug marine series does not appear to be generally known. The late Sir Charles Lycll spent his earliest years in the New Forest, residing at Bartley Lodge near Lyndhurst. At that time shelly marls appear to have been in great request among agriculturists, being employed by them as a manure on some of the poorer soils, like the similar materials of the French Fahluns and our own Crags.
